This was one of the best episodes so far. There have been so many great ones but Joel’s stories were great.

I was Crash and Salvage after 9/11. 2002-2007 on USS Peleliu. Greatest AACC driver on the west coast ( that’s what we all say.) 1of 2 operators to do phase 3 lifts.. having a crash and salvage reunion this November in San Diego.

[@user-ij9tg9cu5l]

Watched a WWII documentary this past weekend which included the battle of Peleliu 1944. Literally left me in tears...

[@JonnyOr]

@@user-ij9tg9cu5l We have some employees working on the helicopter from Saipan and says that Peleliu is a beautiful island. Bucket list. So our hall of hero’s a pway from the Hanger deck to the enlisted mess hall, the whole history of that battle is on the bullkhead.

[@kevinpierce1735]

What a great show. Why did Joel not become a LT.?

[@joelkanasky180]

Hi I didn’t promote in the FDNY for two reasons first I had already been a Lt in Alex and wasn’t for me but more importantly I got assigned to Res1cue and realized it was the dream of a lifetime realized

[@JMackin88]

The guy with the hot mom Holy crap. He has a hot sister now.

[@rodimus371]
